I would like this too! 
I’m up for it next year!
I actually turned it on too early last night and ended up with £3.65 in my pot this morning

When does this trigger for the £1 challenge? Expected it to be today
It was triggered today if you it is active in IFTTT
I made my own one to go at 8am same time as 1p one
It’s on, it found the pot I created for it and I just checked it 
When did you activate it? Was it today? If you activated it today after 8am then it won’t run again till tomorrow.
Also what time zone did you select in the settings? If you selected +0:00 then this will run at 8am everyday.
I selected +2:00 this way my applett runs at 6am each morning.
Edinburgh time zone, set it up yesterday afternoon. This is the £1 challenge so should run weekly
The £1 week one, £2 week two runs on Mondays. So it won’t run until Monday.

Dumb question time but how do you turn these on? I’m being blind in the ap. Thanks
You need another app called IFTTT.
Link in to your Monzo and you can set it off there.

Im saving for a holiday in September 2019 so im hoping to have 1500 by then
I have the reverse 1p challenge activated 
So cool that it can be done automatically through IFTTT. I have it going into my savings pot to keep topping that up.
NYN. I did this half way through. Just paid a big chunk off my credit card which was a nice feeling. I’m doing it again this year but in reverse as I found that the closer I got to December the more money I was spending socially but more money was being put into the pot for this which squeezed my finances a bit. Jan and Feb will probably be quiet months for me so hopefully won’t notice the larger payments of 1p Challenge in reverse.

Not doing the 1p challenge, instead I’m giving the £1 weekly challenge a go! 
I save separately to this anyway so it’ll be interesting to see how thrilled I am with the amounts as the year goes by but it’s fun to try out the IFTTT integration for more than just Monzo blog notifications

I nearly went for this until I saw all the permissions I’d need to give a 3rd party over my bank account! Erm nope, no thanks.
Thevpermissions don’t extend to moving money out of your account

I started today! (moved 1p, 2p, and 3p in as well so I’m up to date) will check to make sure its all working fine and then will lock that sucker up till near September/November. I save alongside this so will be nice to have a little separate pot I can’t access.
Quick query anyone who has used IFTTT do you find that your piggy bank pot (rounded transactions) defaults to not rounding? Just a slight gripe but wanted to see if anyone else had the same issue!
